Put up or shut up -- tough decision unless the Spirit leads

Good morning all!  God is good all the time, all the time God is good!!  TOO BLESSED TO BE STRESSED!!!
    This morning I woke at 3:30 a.m., not sleeping comfortably, knowing I must get up.  Why?  I asked God what He wanted of me this early a.m., the only thing I found was quiet.  A quiet time to stop, pray, spend time with the Lord.  This may have been all He wanted, to just visit with me, quietly, in my prayer room.  Do you ever feel this way?  You know you are supposed to be doing something, yet you are uncertain as to what you should be doing.  These words resonate with me: "BE STILL AND KNOW THAT I AM!"
    Ephesians 5:10-13 "Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord.  and have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.  For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret.  But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light."
     First, find what is acceptable to God.  Once you find what is acceptable then do it.  Next, we are not to be part of the worthless deeds of evil but we should express our disapproval.  If we remain silent, then through our silence we agree with the deeds of evil.  It is disgraceful to God to agree with the vile and corrupt deeds of evil.  We cannot serve 2 masters, the world (darkness, evil) and the light (God, Jesus), so stand up, stand firm for Christ.
  You and I, as children and family of God need to speak up and take a stand for what is right; rebuking what is wrong.  Yet, we must speak the truth with love and through the guidance of the Holy Spirit.  Just let the Spirit work through you and follow the guidance of the Spirit.  Are you making decisions made solely on your own bias or through discernment of the Spirit?  You will know!  Love you all.
In Christ's Love and Grace
